Rudbeckia laciniata

Common name:
Cut-Leaf Coneflower

Native plant

Cut-Leaf Coneflower, also known as Golden Glow, has yellow to yellow green flowers and blooms mid summer to early fall. It prefers moist areas with dappled shade, one of the few Rudbeckia species that is shade tolerant. While it can reach heights of up to 9 feet, it is typically only 3 to 4 feet tall, particularly if growing in part shade. Under ideal growing conditions, it will spread aggressively, forming colonies.
